EDOUARD DELPERO PRO - SMOOTH PROGRESSIVE LINES AND CRITICAL NOSERIDES
9’1 x 22 1/4” x 2 3/4”
Comes with free Shapers 9'2 Daylite Boardbag value $179.95 + wax
This is the model Edouard won his 2019 Surf Relik World longboard title on.
Edouard and Alain worked on that shape to find the perfect balance of modern and classic surfing on a Longboard.
The aggressive outline and rocker will allow you to manœuvre the board at your highest potential while the lift will allow you to hold noserides in critical sections of the waves.
This model took Edouard on top of the 2019 Relik World Longboard Tour, 4 WSL European titles and a win at the WSL Cuervo surf Ranch Classic in 2021 with smooth progressive lines and critical noserides.

If you want a lightweight performance board that’ll last a long time, buy a TEC .
What is it?
Torq Epoxy Composite offers performance shapes in our vacuum epoxy layup. Vacuum epoxy uses a hand lay-up process, with a vacuum bonding process to bind the fiber to the board and remove excess resin. We have a few tricks in the vacuum process that keeps the resin content at a much better level than can usually be achieved.
What’s the benefits?
We can add extra layers of fiber while keeping the overall weight down – our shortboards have 18oz of fiber on the deck and 10oz on the base – approximately double of the fiber found on most boards of the same weight.
The result is lightweight AND durability. The weight is similar to a PU but we have a lot more fiber and more layers to reinforce the rail.
How do they surf?
The performance is very direct – TEC has an immediate response that is especially good in smaller or weaker waves. In larger waves the advantage is they are a lot less likely to break.
If you’re used to PU they feel quick at first. After a few surfs, your old PU will feel very slow!
Our team rider’s report their boards outlasting their previous boards by around 2-4 times longer.
